I am and always have been an advocate for the saftey of helpless, infants and young children. I am a firm believer that it is the parents resonsibilty to take every percaution and care of their children. Nothing can change my mind about that.
I believe that if I knew the people directly involved i'd still feel the same way , because of how I believe childern need to be always supervised and not left in a a situation where they could be harmed. Granted the mother never thought one of the Huskeys' would do it, however, taking a chance for it to happen is a tragedy in itself.
Too many years of teaching, and too many horror stories , I have known and seen personally..
I agree that the dog could be returned to the rescue shelter, and not be put down. Why can't the animal go to a home where no little children reside? |
I, honestly, am not trying to offend anyone on here or say they are not entitled to their own opinions. I'm merely asking that those who are making quick judgements find all facts before judging. As well as, thinking about how they would feel. However....just thinking about how you would feel if you knew someone in this situation is not the same as actually KNOWING them or being attached in some way. It is terrible. It is tragic. It was a freak accident. I just want those accusing the mother to think of themselves in this situation and how pained you would be already, and then to possibly find comments like these on the internet by strangers....people who do not know you and know nothing about you.
Here's an analogy for you all....celebrities. All we really know about celebrities is what is reported in trashy magazines. Does that make it true? And then is it OK for us to judge them for a situation that we, essentially, know nothing about? And then once we DO make those judgements, how do we feel when we find out weeks later that the story that was reported didn't contain all of the facts?
It has only been one day and they have already went back on the word "maul" that they used. How do dogs carry their pups? By their necks! Most of the injuries sustained were to the baby's head...the baby wasn't torn to bits or bitten up....the baby was not mauled!
I understand where you are coming from, having seen too many incidents yourself...but again I have to ask....would any mother on here want this type of judgement passed onto them? Seriously?!
